Answer:

Explanation:

Usually the sounds convey either confusion or fear. She uses the clacking of shoes to show one or both of these responses.

This is not a happy experience for a little girl who lacks language skills and anything resembling a way of telling those she was with that what they were doing was either humiliating or mentally painful or both. That only increased her frustration. In addition, there were cultural problems. The white woman was totally unaware of what she was doing which she meant with great affection.

I think the whites should have been very careful about the hair cutting episode. If the girl resisted, they should have found out why. Surely someone could have interpreted it. You are asking about sound. Every sound, no matter how innocent, would have frighted the child simply because she had no idea what was going on. And every sound was recorded negatively.

Even her dreams were cluttered with sound that frightened. She dreams of the devil and hears the hinges of the door squeaking while she is asleep. She dreams of him chasing her around the stove. The squeaking is like a loud drum introducing his entrance.

I have started it for you. You can keep going in the same vain.

<span>A. Poetry of Place</span>


My birthplace vanished, my citizenship earned, in league with stones of the earth, Ienter, without retreat or help from history, the days of no day, my earth of no earth, I re-enter  the city in which I love you. And I never believed that the multitude of dreams and many words were vain. 
D. Poetry of Family


On the days when the rest have failed you, let this much be yours— flies, dust, an unnameable odor, the two waiting baskets: one for the lemons and passion, the other for all you have lost. Both empty, it will come to your shoulder, breathe slowly against your bare arm. If you offer it hay, it will eat. Offered nothing, it will stand as long as you ask. The little bells of the bridle will hang beside you quietly, in the heat and the tree's thin shade. Do not let its sparse mane deceive you, or the way the left ear swivels into dream. This too is a gift of the gods. Calm and complete. 
B. Poetry of Spirit


When the black snake flashed onto the morning road, and the truck could not swerve— death, that is how it happens. Now he lies looped and useless as an old bicycle tire. I stop the car and carry him into the bushes. 
C. Poetry of Nature
